Sicily Hotels > 4 Stars Sicily Hotels

not even a 2 star

Advantages: good breakfast, reception personel
Disadvantages: all the rest

We are a Belgian group. We stayed with 44 people in this hotel. Breakfast is verry good and people at the reception are friendly. And the rest ... it's not even a 2 star hotel, verry poor quality/price. The food in the restaurant is verry, verry bad (I've never had this food, not even in a 1 star hotel), the waiters (except Rosie) are rude and unpolite (only beautifull woman can get supplements). It gives you the feeling being in hotel Fawlty Towers, ...

Review of Villa Esperia, Taormina

Taormina what a treat

Advantages: Lovely Scenery
Disadvantages: Bit on the steep side

The Bus ride to the hotel is quite a horrific one as Sicily is full of steep cliffs and mountains. Ths bus swings round corners over the cliffs rather dangerously but once you get there your alright. The Bus stops in the bus station which is conveniently at the bottom of the hotel. The steps to the hotel are rather steep so i would say this hotel is not for the less mobile. When getting into the hotel you go in a tunnel which on your left is a pane ...
...see everybody's legs swimming. You then get a lift upto the main reception, where you are greeted politely by the staff. The suitcases are taken to your room by a personal member of staff. When we got into the room, we realised it was very spacious, with a high ceiling. The bathroom was marble and came with the shampoos and soaps etc. We had a safety deposit box in the room, a tele and a mini bar. We opened the curtains and even though we didn't ...

Review of Grand Dei Templi, Agrigento

Don't stay at Liberty, very dangerous area

Advantages: near city centre
Disadvantages: very dangerous area

...city in Sicily and the Liberty Hotel is in a bad area of the city. I tried to stay there but was carjacked right outside the Liberty Hotel!!! A man blocked the road while his team of thieves opened my car doors and stole our bags. Because of this incident, I drove off and didn't stay at the hotel that night. My girlfriend was terrified. When I told the hotel about this incident, they would not refund my money for that night. The manager said it was ...
...do not stay at the Liberty Hotel. I don't like supporting people that profit on other's misfortunes. Also, be very careful in that area. We spoke to someone who grew up in that area and recommended not traversing in that area if you are a tourist. Stay away from the Liberty Hotel!!! I consider them to be thieves just like the men who robbed me for their actions. ...

Review of Liberty Hotel, Catania

Villa Esperia - dont go

Advantages: views
Disadvantages: poor rooms and awful restaurant

We returned to this hotel after staying here a couple of years ago. Unfortunately the standards have dropped dramatically. The rooms are adequate but some balconies are only the french type, and are not large enough for a chair. The staff are polite but distant, and the restaurant manager is constantly aggresive and extremely rude. Food quality is very poor, the salad bar consisted of a couple of lettuce and some tomatoes put onto the bar for customers ...
